Response surface optimization of microalgae microbial fuel cell (MMFC) enhanced by yeast immobilization for bioelectricity production

H. Hadiyanto et al.

Summary: In this study, suspended and immobilized Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast in alginate were used as a biocatalyst to optimize the operating conditions of microalgae microbial fuel cell (MMFC) with different concentrations of tofu wastewater. The results showed that immobilized yeast performed better in producing stable electrical output and removing COD compared to suspended yeast. Therefore, the model using immobilized yeast at a concentration of 10.89% w/v and wastewater concentration of 56.94% achieved the best power density and COD removal efficiency.

Potential for future reductions of global GHG and air pollutants from circular waste management systems

Adriana Gomez-Sanabria et al.

Summary: Based on the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways, a global systematic approach is developed to evaluate the potential reduction of greenhouse gas and air pollutant emissions through circular municipal waste management systems. The study contrasts two sets of global scenarios and finds that a sustainability-oriented mitigation strategy produces earlier and larger co-benefits compared to scenarios focused solely on technical solutions. The findings indicate that the sustainability-oriented scenario can eliminate ambient air pollution from open burning entirely before 2050, while still having 386 Tg CO2eq/yr of GHG (CH4 and CO2) to be released.
